My French fusil lock and barrel were left "in the white". Now after a few years I finally took the barrel off and found there was quite a bit of corosion; particularly around the front barrel lug. To slow this down and prevent further pitting I thought I would clean up the area and paint the rusty portion (it's under the barrel channel and won't show) with a primer paint. Does this seem appropriate? Any other suggestions? ::
